44What is Life?: The Originality, Irreducibility, and Value of Life (edited book)BRILL. 1997.This book makes four bold claims: 1) life is an ultimate datum, open to philosophical analysis and irreducible to physical reality; hence all materialist-reductionist explanations - most current theories - of life are false. 2) All life presupposes soul (_entelechy_) without which a being would at best _fake_ life. 3) The concept of life is _analogous_ and the most direct access to life in its irreducibility is gained through consciousness; 4) All life possesses an objective and intrinsic value …Read more

312The truth about fictionIn Wlodzimierz Galewicz, Elisabth Ströker & Wladyslaw Strozewski (eds.), Kunst und Ontologie: Für Roman Ingarden zum 100. Geburtstag, Brill. pp. 97-118. 1994.Ingarden distinguishes four strata making up the structure of the literary work of art: the stratum of word sounds and sound-complexes; the stratum of meaning units; the stratum of represented objectivities (characters, actions, settings, and so forth); and the stratum of schematized aspects (perspectives under which the represented objectivities are given to the reader). It is not only works of literature which manifest this four-fold structure but also certain borderline cases such as newspape…Read more

88Scheler on RepentanceAmerican Catholic Philosophical Quarterly 79 (1): 183-202. 2005.The author studies Scheler’s essay, “Repentance and Rebirth,” gathering together and interpreting all the insights of Scheler on repentance, and often reading them in the light of Dietrich von Hildebrand’s work in the philosophy of religion. The author examines Scheler’s critique of the reductionist accounts of repentance as well as Scheler’s own account. He gives particular attention to one basic problem in Scheler’s account of repentance, namely, a tendency to let forgiveness arise in the repe…Read more

15¿Qué es filosofía?: la respuesta de la fenomenología realistaAnuario Filosófico 28 (1): 91-108. 1995.What is philosophy? This question (in this case, a philosophical question) deals with the problem of philosophy as a science. The philosophy origin is the "admiration at universal". Husserl's Phenomenology wants to resolve this question searching an "a priori" sintetic. This is not the kantian answer, non a subjective answer. It is a new consideration of experience as the author wants to show

43Is the Existence of Truth Dependent upon Man?Review of Metaphysics 35 (3). 1982.IN Being and Time and elsewhere M. Heidegger asserts that there is no truth prior to the "discovering being" of man. According to this view, the truth of the Newtonian laws, for example, would have existed only since and through Newton's discoveries. Heidegger only spells out the logical consequences of this position when he asserts that the suicide extinguishes not only his "being-there," but also the truth.
